Profile:
A courageous right handed opening batsman, Sudhir Naik went as one of
the candidates for the opening batsman's slot on the 1974 tour of
England. He did well in the first class matches, scoring 730 runs
(40.55) and forced his way into the team for the final Test. Out for
four in the first innings, Naik batted in gritty fashion in a losing
cause in the second innings to get top score of 77. Back home he
played in two more Tests against West Indies but after scores of 48,
6, 0, 6 was discarded for good.
For Bombay however Naik did very well and in the Ranji Trophy he
scored 2687 runs (40.10) with a highest score of 200 not out against
Baroda in 1973-74. But perhaps Naik's biggest distinction was that he
led Bombay to an unexpected Ranji Trophy triumph in 1970-71. It was a
badly depleted side with the stars being away with the Indian team in
the West Indies. But Naik making adroit use of the limited resources
proved himself to be an astute captain. (Partab
